I have no oven, but I do have a good Sharp microwave. After experimentation we have found you can make GREAT cake in the microwave. Using a glass souffle dish, we make 1/2 Duncan Hines cake mix using the directions cut in half but with 2 eggs instead of 1-1/2. Grease and flour the bottom of the dish. Pour the prepared mix into the souffle dish and place into the microwave. We have a turntable in ours. Set on high setting and we bake for 6 minutes 45 seconds. We have tried 7 minutes and then 6 minutes 30 seconds. The 6:45 seems to work the best. We also tried making the cake in a silicone loaf pan (the rectangle one) but liked the glass dish much better as the center of the loaf was pretty rubbery. Let sit for 4-5 minutes then flip onto plate. After it has cooled, frost with whatever your favorite is or just use powdered sugar! This makes a 1-layer cake and we get 8 servings out of it. Imagine, cake in 15 minutes and no heat from the oven!
